Hi, Where can I get the "H" cable for my FT-950 so I can add a cheap spectrum display and panadaptor to the radio? What about ADSB software? MIke

I don't know about ADSB but read a little about using SDR for ADSB at this site: http://www.rtl-sdr.com/adsb-aircraft-radar-with-rtl-sdr/. Regarding the FT-950 cable, check online ham forums like QRZ or eham, or online Yaesu groups and forums.

Hi Jeremy.Those radios comes programmed by factory.But i suggest reprogram to follow the FCC rules.You can find the cable here in amazon, and the SW on Internet.

Hey Parsa! I haven't used this rig yet. But, it does not use an audio channel so it will not work with a head tracker or antenna tracker, OSD. I do not think it comes with the Fatshark cables though I bet You could plug something together. I am going to keep Mine, but it is a little limited without the audio channel.

Hey Chor, just wondering if you figured this out yet? I'm looking for an expander for my 8300HDC on TW cable so i was wondering did they ever fix the problem on the software?

I bought this cable and it works great with my Baofeng and my kenwood it does have the FTDI Chipset.

I bought this radio for my sister, who had it installed by the Geek Squad at Best Buy. You might try calling a Best Buy or a Radio Shack to see if they carry (or look online on Amazon!)

The instruction manual says an htmi cable can be hooked up. I think some sort of adapter is required. I did not see a specific slot for that.

If you buy the separate air to digital conversion receiver. Check your local area you might be able to pick it up free of charge from fed govt or go to best buy and get a good one for round $65

I am afraid my sangean wft-1 packed up. I am not sure what the problem was and I didn't bother to repair it as it was an unsatisfactory device which wouldn't work with bbc which was the station i wanted to receive. David

Wrong. He will not need a converter.Yes, friendlyherb, you will be able to get he new, over-the-air DIGITAL signal. You don't need cable.

On a watt meter UHF output is just about exactly 4 watts on the high setting. I ended up going with a Diamond SRH805S stubby since I wanted this HT for UHF use anyway and I can say that the combo, even for a stubby and only 4 watts, is impressive as far as true distance is concerned. The stock antenna is not going to impress you for UHF IMO. Ron, W2ZXL

You could record with the gqrx software in Linux ( gnu radio distro from a pendrive ) for example. Distance from tower will have to be addressed with an external antenna of the desired frequency, I believe you will need a mmx to bnc connector and a normal antenna with bnc.

A genuine cable (kenwood icon, etc.) will work I assume. The cheap Chinese cables will work as well , (suck as the ones found on amazon,) will work too. The issue with these is the drivers. If you buy one, (I own two,) you need do some research on line on how to install the driver. Once you get the driver installed for the cable the rest is simply programming the radio and writing the info. You also best to stay withthe uv-b5 series in my opinion, as the uv-5r series has several different firmware versions and that makes it a pain to use. The b5 writes very well. Inhave not used a uv-82. I hope this helped. YouTube also has some good videos that demonstrate how to install the proper driver.

Troy I decided against XM, or Sirius. If you go to Best Buy, or a reputable installer they can do this for you. I already have an HD component, and the Alpine 445U under the dash amp. I thought adding more was getting a little to busy. In addition to this if you have to use that outside antenna that comes with it make sure you use something under it to protect your paint The antenna has a tendency to rust. and will leave a permanent mark. There aren't a lot of options for that antenna it has to be located outside at the top middle of the windshield, or top middle of the rear window to get the best reception. Then there's the other issues with the company itself once you subscribe. I'm attaching this to my post from someone who has . Hope this helps.....http://www.amazon.com/review/R30H0D1KZBQ38L/ref=cm_cr_pr_viewpnt#R30H0D1KZBQ38L Best, Jerry

Not as delivered. You need to get a MHS291L adapter cable. The antenna cable has an adapter cable at the end so that you can interface with different sized antenna connectors. It is easy to unscrew the threaded adapter cable and replace it with the proper size that fits the MHS291L. Search on Amazon, it costs $9.99.

Spend the extra 7 bucks and get a programming cable. You can plug it into a PC or Mac and fill out a spreadsheet-like Table and upload it into the radio.The cable and software can be a bit tricky. Here is a link that guilders me through setup:http://www.miklor.com/COM/UV_Drivers.php#macIf all of the options in the program appear as question marks, goto the last option on the file menu, and select "English" (it will be the only option that isn't question marks.

you need a coax cable (I had this same problem, I got one from Radio Shack and problem solved)
